Florida Gov. Rick Scott and Attorney General Pam Bondi made the right decision to not challenge a federal appeals court ruling that quashed a state law prohibiting medical doctors from asking patients about guns in their homes. Florida’s Firearms Owners Privacy Act, enacted by the Republican-led Legislature and Scott in 2011, and nicknamed the “docs vs. Glocks” law, was an overblown reaction to a minute matter facing gun owners. Now, since Scott and Bondi let lapse last month’s deadline to respond to a February ruling by the U.S. 11th Circuit Court, doctors may treat patients more fully without, contrary to claims by some gun-rights activists, diminishing gun owners’ rights.

They can ask, but I'm not going to tell. And if they ask we, the patients, can go elsewhere.

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
